A dragonfly has a life span of more than a year, but very little of that life is actually as an adult dragonfly. There are three stages of the dragonfly life cycle, the egg, the nymph, and the adult dragonfly. Most of the life cycle of a dragonfly is lived out in the nymph stage and you don’t see them at all, unless you are swimming underwater in a lake or pond with your eyes opened, of course

A male and a female dragonfly will mate while they are flying in the air. After two dragonflies mate, the female dragonfly will lay her eggs on a plant in the water, or if she can’t find a suitable plant she will just drop them into the water.

female dragonfly's lay egg's in or near water, often on floating or emergent plants.

The lahlll stag of large dragonfly's may last as long as five years.

when laying eggs ,some species will submerge themselues completay in order to lay their eggs on a good surfaces.

nerly every deetl is a inverebrate.

a dragonfly comes out at night some times and they come out in the day.Though dragonflies are predators, they

themselves are subject to being preyed upon by birds, lizards, frogs, spiders, fish, water bugs, and even other large dragonflies.
